Daily Drops

Most small towns have something they're known for;  it might be a building or a statue, or some famous person who lived there.  When I was a Baptist pastor forty years ago in the little town of St Francis, Kansas, it was the "Walkin' Boys.  Not exactly "boys", they were three middle-aged brothers who were probably autistic and lived at the local nursing home called "The Village".  Their parents made provision for them to live there after they passed away so they would be well taken care of.  What made them so memorable was they would venture out every day from the Village regardless of the weather and walk the length of the town, checking their post office box, stopping in at the jewelry store to have their watches set, then proceed out to the cemetery to pay their respects to their parents, then return to the Village.  They would make this three mile trip three times a day if the weather wasn't too extreme, and you could almost set your watch by when they would pass by.  I felt they needed a song, and it is one that's still remembered by those who knew them. I understand the last of the Walkin' Boys passed away just a few years ago having lived to a ripe old age of course--they walked every day:)  The song also features my singing; something that got lost along the way some years ago. You'll also hear a little tape hiss; it was mastered from a forty-year-old cassette:)
Lyrics:
It's another sunshiny morning in our little town,
The air is crisp and clear, a little snow left on the ground,
Then I look up Benton Street and guess who's coming down,
It's those Walkin' Boys, those Walkin' Boys are coming around.

Well they call the Village home but don't spend much time there,
They spend their time a walkin' 
And what folks think they don't much care,
And the season doesn't matter they still take the dare,
To tread in summer's heat or old man winter's frigid air.
Chorus:
Walkin' Boys where you goin'
Walkin' Boys who do you know,
Walkin' Boys seldom have a word to say. 
All dressed up in dungarees,
Smoking their pipes as proud as you please,
Walkin' Boys where you going today?

They start out from the Village for their daily chore,
They check their mail box then walk to Stewart's jewelry store, 
And with their watches set they go on out the door
Headed for the graveyard then return to go once more.

Boys you may not know me but I think you're grand.
I used to think you strange, but now I better understand,
That you are the way you are because of God's own hand,
You're special to our town and unique in all the land.
Chorus 2:
Walkin' Boys where you goin'
Walkin' Boys who do you know,
Walkin' Boys seldom have a word to say.
Lookin' at the graves but they aren't sad,
Just paying respects to their mom and dad,
Walkin' Boys where you goin' today?

Circle of life

Menjen – egy belső mozdulat zenéje.
Ez a darab nem a csendből indul, hanem a feszültség mélyebb rétegeiből tör fel: határozott, előre húzó energia, amely lassan alakít át mindent, amin áthalad. A rezgések hol sűrűsödnek, hol tágulnak, miközben végig megmarad az a belső áramlás, amely a Fényhang-hangzás sajátja.

Ez a mű a „továbbmenés” rezgésmezője:
lépni, kilépni, túllendülni – akár érzésben, akár gondolatban.
Nem célja a szépítés, csak az őszinte mozgás.

A kompozíció természetes dinamikát hordoz: a testhangzás, a pulzáló textúrák és a finom fényrétegek együtt hozzák létre azt a belső előrehaladást, amelyre a cím utal. Ez egy tiszta impulzus: indulj meg – akár befelé, akár kifelé.

Csendből születő fényhang – intuitív rezgés, napi áramlás.

Menjen

Our music is made in the studio but in an organic way, based on improvisation, concentration and the artisanal composition of each track, without using artificial intelligence. It is not our goal to be a mass product, to have thousands of likes or false reproductions, but to reach a community of creators who believe that music can be made honestly from simple human creativity. 
Artificially created music is vulgarizing it, turning it into a worthless product, only destined to fill the lives of generations who in the end will not know the magic of its creation or its execution with cheap background noise. 
FFA are not an example of anything, but we believe that we should warn about the direction that technology is taking with respect to art. We respect all opinions and surely history will bury us in the past, but this is our position.
